14:48 * 18.06.14
Azerbaijan has not been formally invited either to the Customs Union
or the Eurasian Economic Union but Moscow would welcome any partner
interested in collaboration with these organizations, Russian Foreign
Minister Sergei Lavrov said.
"There has been no formal invitation of Azerbaijan to either the
Customs Union or the Eurasian Economic Union but we have always pointed
out in contacts between our leaders regarding economic cooperation
that we would welcome any partner demonstrating an interest in closer
relations with the Customs Union and, in a later period, with the
Eurasian Economic Union," Lavrov told a press conference in Baku
following negotiations with his Azeri counterpart.
"The Karabakh problem has nothing to do with the Eurasian integration
processes underway between Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus, which will
soon be joined by Armenia through the signing of a relevant document,"
the Russian foreign minister noted, Interfax reports.
